Chapter 719: Peeping (I)
Li Yan immediately thought of Zhao Min. If she was favored by a Yuanying from the "Holy Demon Palace", he would be in big trouble.
An ancient sect that could fight against the Black Demon Clan alone, if they didn't want Zhao Min to leave, what else could he do?
They only had the power of the entire Wild Moon Continent to deal with part of the invasion of the Black Demon Clan. Even so, they almost destroyed the entire cultivation world.
From this, we can imagine the horror and fear of the strength of the "Holy Demon Palace".
There are also large and small branches of the White Demon Clan and small sects and small families under the "Holy Demon Palace".
There are many Yuanying cultivators in these sects and families, and they all obey the command of the "Holy Demon Palace".
Li Yan only hopes that Zhao Min will fall into these sects and families in the end, so that he can take advantage of the opportunity and take Zhao Min away. ??
However, Li Yan was not so arrogant that he could easily take Zhao Min away just because the other party was a small sect or a small family.
He now wants to confirm Zhao Min's location, and then work out a more detailed rescue plan step by step.
Li Yan also learned about the more detailed division of the demon race from these classics.
Both the Black Demon Race and the White Demon Race are managed and ruled by large armies. There will also be a small number of cultivators of other races in the army. These alien cultivators are all from races that have close contacts with the demon race.
At the same time, the division of cultivation levels in the two races is also different. The White Demon Race army does not use titles such as Demon Soldier, Demon Head, Demon General, and Demon Commander to distinguish levels.
It is divided according to the oldest levels of Qi Condensation, Foundation Building, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul in the world of immortal cultivation, which is the same as the cultivators of the Desolate Moon Continent.
From this, it can be known that the White Demon Race belongs to a very ancient heritage, and Li Yan truly understands that the level division of the demon race in the Desolate Moon Continent is wrong.
First of all, the Desolate Moon Continent has always faced the invasion of the Black Demon Race, so there is a wrong judgment on the demon world in cognition.
For example, the statement that the demon soldiers are below the demon beasts and the corresponding Qi Condensation stage demon cultivators is wrong. The demon race is not promoted from the demon beasts.
Magic beasts are a general term for other non-human beasts similar to the human race. The "white incandescent magic tiger" carried by Teng Wuji is a race of magic beasts.
Li Yan believed that magic cultivators were promoted from high-level magic beasts, while "white incandescent magic tigers" and others belonged to low-level magic beasts, which were suppressed by the blood of the demon race.
The demon race itself is a race. The black demon race cultivators who can embark on the immortal path are called "demon condensers", which means people who have just started the path of magic cultivation.
"Demon condensers" are too weak to reach the Desolate Moon Continent through the crack channel of the Yin Demon Cliff.
Therefore, the cultivators on the Desolate Moon Continent have never seen this kind of low-level cultivators appear, even Wei Chongran and others may not know.
But this kind of thing may not be a secret to the Yuanying and Huashen cultivators, and they may even know that the demon world is divided into two demon races, black and white.
It's just that the significance of not explaining this kind of thing is not very great. Instead, it will make some cultivators on the Desolate Moon Continent think that the demon world is not all enemies, thus weakening the heart of common hatred against the enemy.
In this way, for a long time, the demon cultivators in the Desolate Moon Continent have been demonized. Their cruelty and bloodthirstiness made the origin of the demon clan simple.
In the end, it became a rumor that they evolved from low-level monsters such as demon beasts, which is in line with the brutal characteristics of the demon clan.
The Black Demon Clan and the White Demon Clan are no longer mortal enemies. Although there are battles on the border from time to time, they are basically small-scale battles.
According to the records that Li Yan saw, the last war was more than 2,600 years ago.
Many sects and cultivators of the Black Demon Clan and the White Demon Clan have privately interacted with each other, such as exchanges between sects, or the sale of some cultivation resources.
Some special cultivation resources of the Black Demon Clan do not carry any demonic energy, but are born in the eastern region. These things are needed by the cultivators in the western region under the jurisdiction of the White Demon Clan.
The other part is the raw materials with demonic energy. As long as the demonic energy is not too much and too violent, it is an excellent raw material for refining equipment and alchemy.
This mainly depends on how the refiners and alchemists make use of it. They can also use the violent demonic energy to increase the attack power of magic weapons or the domineering medicinal power of pills.
Similarly, many raw materials from the White Demon Clan are also needed by the Black Demon Clan.
However, this kind of communication usually occurs in private exchanges. The "Holy Demon Palace" and the "Demon God Temple" do not explicitly encourage it, but they will not strictly prohibit it.
At the same time, the "Holy Demon Palace" of the White Demon Clan still has some control over the raw materials from the east.
If the demonic energy in the other party's raw materials is too strong or the quantity is large, the "Holy Demon Palace" will intervene and even impose severe sanctions. After all, they don't want a large number of cultivators who rely on demonic energy to practice in the west without knowing it.
In addition to buying and selling raw materials, both sides basically ignore the exchange of skills between the lower sects.
After all, this is already a necessary experience for cultivators. It is rare for opponents to suppress them. Since ancient times, the strong have come from a road paved with blood and water.
No matter whether it is the "Demon God Temple" or the "Holy Demon Palace", who wants their disciples to become weaker and weaker?
Now the attitude of both sides is that even if the other side's cultivators come to assassinate them, as long as it does not involve cultivators above the Jindan level, the top leaders of both sides will basically not show up.
After Li Yan read the classics, although he still didn't know much about the Lost Continent, at least he now knew a big outline.
From this point of view, if he wants to get the information about Zhao Min, he must find out as much as possible in Baidao Tianbao Pavilion in Mingdu City, which is the easiest place to get it.
of a place.
The demons are managed by a military system, and there are countless strong men in the army. Even if Li Yan wants to find the few sergeants who appeared that day near Shan Yiyuan's village, the result may not be of much significance.
Maybe, Li Yan would be captured as soon as he showed up near the army.
What's more, those few people are also powerful monks, and Li Yan is not sure that he can completely deal with any of them.
The monks in this kind of army are definitely not weak in fighting experience. They often cannot measure each other by their realm. Even if they are just new to the Golden Core, they are not comparable to ordinary Golden Core monks.
Almost all of them have very strong life-saving trump cards. If they are not careful, they will be counter-attacked by the opponent, or even fall into endless pursuit. ??
Li Yan kept judging all the news in his heart...
On the morning of the third day, Li Yan finally walked out of the room. When he passed by the front hall, he accidentally spotted a few figures that surprised him.
They were six monks with fish heads and human bodies. They were sitting in front of the inn by the window, drinking opposite each other.
At the same time that Li Yan spotted several people, the six fish-headed monks also saw Li Yan at the same time.
In an instant, several hostile looks were cast towards Li Yan. Four of them were the foreign monks he met outside the city a few days ago.
Moreover, there are two more monks with the same fish heads and bodies beside these four people, and the auras on their bodies are much stronger.
Li Yan probably sensed that one of the two fish-headed monks he had never seen before was in the late stage of foundation building, and the other had already reached the fake elixir realm, which was considered half-step to the golden elixir.
Li Yan felt the cold murderous intent in his eyes, and he sneered in his heart.
"There are many inns in the city, and they actually chased them here. They even brought reinforcements. Are you the only one? There are monks from another clan."
Li Yan remembered that among the foreign monks he injured that day, there were several monks with gloomy eyes and long snow-white tails, but he didn't know what race they were.
Li Yan was thinking this, but he didn't stop and continued walking out expressionlessly.
In Mingdu City, how dare these people take action directly? He didn't have the time to deal with these matters.
Seeing that Li Yan ignored their existence and looked unconcerned, a look of doubt flashed in the eyes of the fish-headed monk who had reached the false elixir level.
After they found out that Li Yan was here, they had been waiting for him to leave the city.
At the same time, they came here just to confirm Li Yan's cultivation level again, but not to actually kick him on the iron plate.
Although the overall strength of the human monks seems to be declining, their relationship with the "Holy Demon Palace" is still there.
If you can't kill the opponent with one blow, if you let the opponent escape, and you have the leverage in the opponent's hands, your own clan will also get into a lot of trouble.
but only
You have to wait for others to keep your hands and feet clean. Even if someone suspects you afterwards, where is the evidence?
Without evidence, the "Holy Demon Palace" will just let it go. It is no longer what it used to be.
"He should have recognized you. Does this person really have no companions?"
The fake elixir monk with a fish head and body sent a message to the people on the other side.
"No, and as soon as he entered this inn, he activated the protective formation, and no one came to look for him again. We have inquired about this carefully."
"Oh, he is indeed in the late stage of foundation building, but he seems to be very confident. He didn't check out just now, and he looked like he wouldn't leave.
The human race is the most cunning. I will stay here and you will guard the four city gates. If he takes the opportunity to leave, inform me as soon as possible.
The Xueyue Wolf Clan should inform them when the time comes. It would be better for them to take action, and they can also share some of the impact.
Otherwise, we will follow it ourselves and wait for the opportunity. "
The fake elixir monk with a fish head looked at Li Yan's retreating figure, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and spoke quickly through a voice transmission.
These fellow tribesmen asked him and another person to take action. Although they also paid a lot of spiritual stones, the most important thing is that the reward amount secretly offered by the black demon tribe to kill the murderous monks has increased again.
It was more than doubled just half a year ago. The black demons seem to hate human monks more and more. This increase in reward is very abrupt.
However, as for why the Black Demon Clan did this, they, the Cangyu Sect, didn’t care. Who wouldn’t want to make more money?
If he could kill this human monk, the reward he would get would be even richer.
As for the other companion who came next to him, he didn't take it seriously. Would he dare to compete with him in the later stages of foundation building?
When the time came, he took action and killed the human monk with one strike. He was just a spectator.
But seeing that Li Yan still looked confident after sensing his group, this made the fish-headed fake alchemy monk feel that it was difficult to deal with him.
Li Yan was walking on the street in a gray shirt, not allowed to do anything unless he was in a hurry.
He walked up and down the street, and occasionally entered a shop. Usually after making inquiries, he bought some materials and jade slips, which was quite leisurely.
His behavior gave the two fish-headed monks who were secretly watching from a distance a toothache.
According to the situation, this human cultivator should not leave the city today. They have been waiting for this "master" for several days.
Li Yan walked through one street after another until noon. This time he went directly to Baidao Tianbao Pavilion.
Baidao Tianbao Pavilion should have two courtyards, front and back. The square one is a not-so-big storefront, which is not very eye-catching.
As soon as Li Yan stepped in, a young man who looked like a waiter immediately greeted him with a smile on his face.
